VITAS Telecare: 24/7 Access to Care

We're Here Evenings, Weekends and Holidays

VITAS Telecare® is your reassurance that you have a direct line to medical advice, support and hands-on care, as appropriate, at any time of the day or night. During weekdays, of course, you contact your hospice team at the number they provide. But when your hospice team is off duty and your VITAS office is closed, your Telecare hospice team is on the job: evenings, weekends and holidays.

A VITAS Telecare® nurse or other patient care expert answers your call. He or she has access to your files and the expertise to answer your questions, contact your physician or dispatch an on-call team member to the bedside—whether it’s 5:45 on a Monday night or midnight on New Year’s Eve.
